    The Centre of Gravity & its relationship to the Application of Sports Massage Introduction Every object has a centre of gravity‚ which‚ when combined with other factors such as the line of gravity‚ enables an object to balance. If a person or object moves or changes shape‚ the centre of gravity will also move. This is important to remember when discussing sports massage as the therapist is constantly moving‚ making them vulnerable to being unbalanced or unstable. So to be able to conduct a safe

    Specific gravity What is specific gravity? Archimedes discovered that the weight of body in air minus its weight in water is equivalent to the weight of the water displaced by the body. Specific gravity is defined as "The weight of a body compared with the weight of an equal amount of pure water at 4°C (4°C is the temperature at which water is densest). When a body is placed in water‚ the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the body. When the body is placed in water that it

    Determining g on an Incline Lab #1 Theory: During the early part of the seventeenth century‚ Galileo experimentally examined the concept of acceleration. One of his goals was to measure the acceleration due to gravity‚ or the acceleration of freely falling objects. Unfortunately‚ his timing devices were not precise enough to measure the free fall time directly. He decided to “dilute” gravity by using fluids‚ inclined planes‚ and pendulums. Galileo’s idea of diluting gravity using inclined planes

    force and motion I problem 1 The figure below is an overhead view of a 12 kg tire that is to be pulled by three ropes. One force (Fl‚ with magnitude 50 N) is indicated. Orient the other two forces F2 and F3 so that the magnitude of the resulting acceleration of the tire is least‚ and find that magnitude if (a) F2 = 30N‚ F3= 20 N; (b) F2= 30 N‚ F3 = 10 N; and (c) F2 = F3 = 30 N. problem 2 A weight-conscious penguin with a mass of 15.0 kg rests on a bathroom scale (see figure below).

    DETERMINING THE GLUCOSE CONTENT OF AND ORANGE USING GOD-PAP ASSAY Every fruit has a sweet taste only that some are sweeter than others. The sweetness of most fruits come from its sugar content and these sugars that the fruits contain are known as invert sugars. In this experiment‚ an orange was used. An orange which is an excellent source of vitamin C gets its sweetness from natural sugars which are sucrose‚ glucose and fructose (livestrong.com). In this experiment the concentration of glucose in

    The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there
